encinozero Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Hi -- I'm not sure which section of the forum this belongs in, so I apologize in advance if it's in the wrong place. I wonder if anyone could translate the writings at the bottom of this image, I would appreciate it very much. Thanks! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/aro...hprotection.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai-Aust Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I think this is Khmer, not Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleyboy Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Certainly doesnt look thai, maybe ask a mod to move this to the thai language section, you will probably get a better response there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadish_sweetball Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Moving this to the language section and alerting our onboard mystics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johpa Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Script is not modern Thai, perhaps older Lanna script or older Lao script. Looks like template for traditional Thai tattoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Noodles Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 It is not Thai, it is an old style of Khmer, if you want to ask a Thai person about it they will possibly know it as 'Korm'. Agood place to start your homework is this website below. http://www.mon-khmer.com/ It is certainly a tattoo for strength, power and protection, But you know this already. Sorry i cant be more help.

Thai-Aust Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) If you really want to know, whatever it takes, I suggest you travel to Surin province. There are many Khmers living there, the best way to go is to track down old monks or elders. They have reputation in this kind of thing.

meadish_sweetball Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 It has been in the language section since the day you posted it - I moved it myself, see post above... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabaijai Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Looks like the work of tattoo master Ajahn Noo, and yes it's khom. You could go to his place in Pathum Thani, or send an email via www.arjannoo.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
